Version History

1.17.1

Fixed an issue that occured when mods re-assigned characters already in the [NongenericCharacters] list to the index they're already assigned to.

1.17

• Increased the limit of characters in the [NongenericCharacters] section from 128 to Infinite.
• Made indices in the [NongenericCharacters] section per mod and are automagically remapped as necessary at runtime.
• Made the [NongenericOutfits] section support mapping an outfit by name.
  • This effectively deprecates the [NongenericCharacters] section.

1.13

Added support for [NongenericCharacters].

1.12

Added this hack.
